The perennially perky blue hedgehog brings his finger-waving antics onto the PS2, along with an entourage that'd put JLo to shame. Joined by long-standing friends such as Tails, Knuckles and Amy, as well as some of the spiky ones' adversaries over the years, Sonic and his pals combine their individual skills to create the ultimate furry fighting force.

Battling evil through the medium of spinning, flying and sheer strength, you'll put together a crack team of woodland creatures, hell-bent on wreaking havoc. In search of the usual Chaos crystals, you'll play as Team Sonic, Team Dark, Team Rose or Team Chaotix, all of which have their own individual strengths and weaknesses. The all-new configuration feature means that you can employ different characters for certain areas and challenges, and either spin, jump or fly across a range of obstacles in brightly coloured environments. Each team has their own storyline and specific side-quests too, with individual outcomes depending on which path you choose to take. There's the option to put your team-building skills to the test against a friend in the two-player challenges as well, and unlock additional modes and races as you go along.

Play as one of four teams, with 12 different characters to get to grips with, including Sonic, Tails and Knuckles

Experiment with multiple paths and experience different story outcomes depending on where you choose to go
